Title: Processing c4 olefin streams for the maximum production of propylene
Inventor: GARTSIDE ROBERT J
IPC: C07C11/06
Filed: 2004-07-12
Granted: 2012-03-20
Abstract: In order to maximize the production of propylene when the external supply of ethylene is limited, the C4 cut from a hydrocarbon cracking process is first subjected to autometathesis prior to any isobutylene removal and without any ethylene addition. This favors the reactions which produce propylene and pentenes. The ethylene and propylene produced are then removed leaving a stream of the C4~s and heavier components. The C5 and heavier components are then removed leaving a mixture of 1-butene, 2-butene, isobutylene, and iso-and normal butanes. The isobutylene is next removed preferably by a catalytic distillation hydroisomerization de-isobutyleneizer. The isobutylene-free C4 stream is then mixed with the product ethylene removed from the autometathesis product together with any fresh external ethylene needed and subjected to conventional metathesis producing additional propylene.

Title: Vehicle-mounted air purifier
Inventor: YAMAMOTO AKIRA
IPC: A61L9/22
Filed: 2004-09-16
Granted: 2008-12-02
Abstract: A vehicle-mounted air purifier includes a main unit incorporating an ion generator. The main unit is removably arranged within a passenger space inside a vehicle.  For example, if a beverage container holder is provided inside the vehicle, the main unit can be removably arranged within the passenger space when given a cylindrical shape that permits it to be held in the beverage container. The power from which the vehicle-mounted air purifier operates can be taken from a cigarette lighter power outlet provided inside the vehicle through a connection cable. The main unit is thus arranged directly within the passenger space, and the ions generated by the ion generator inside are fed into the passenger space with higher efficiency. The main unit is removably arranged as an independent unit. Thus, even when the ion generator breaks down or otherwise its replacement becomes necessary, the arranged ion generator can be removed readily and replaced easily.

Abstract: Disclosed is a convenient sample preparation method for a medium suspected of containing contaminants, the method comprising a) passing a known volume of said medium through a filter from an influent side to an effluent side thereby concentrating the contaminants on the influent side of the filter, b) contacting the influent side of the filter with a liquid vehicle containing at least one substrate that through interaction with the contaminants each produces a detectable moiety, and c) allowing the substrate to interact with the contaminants on the influent side of the filter for a period of time, which is sufficient to allow the detectable moiety to be detected in the liquid vehicle. The method may further comprise a detection step where the amount of detectable is determined in the liquid vehicle, preferably after the liquid vehicle has been separated from the contaminant, e.g. by passing the liquid vehicle through the filter and performing a measurement on the contaminant free liquid vehicle. Also disclosed is a kit for exercising the inventive method.

Abstract: A concave reflector can form a more uniform beam of light. The light source can be an LED with a nominally lambertian radiation pattern. LED can be high power requiring heatsink. Light reflected by reflector and light exiting without hitting reflector can form coinciding beams of essentially same size. Matching of sizes of reflected and unreflected components can be achieved in part by having a tangent at a rim parallel to axis of reflector. For some LEDs hot spot in center of beam is reduced by curvature becoming increasingly sharp when approaching along reflective curve a critical radius at which tangent to reflector curve in plane containing axis of reflector has angle near 45 degrees with respect to axis of reflector. Reflector can be used in, for example, work lights, desk lamps, accent lights, headlamps, and flashlights. Lamps can have multiple reflectors with one LED for each reflector.
